Some LED light sources use an array arrangement of multiple lamp beads, and each lamp bead is individually distributed.

There is also a light source that uses blue laser to excite fluorescence to produce white light, which can achieve a smaller light emission angle, but its electro-optical conversion efficiency is low, the heat dissipation is large, and the reliability is low. Therefore, a glare light source with long life, small angle, low power consumption and long irradiation distance is needed. Summary of the invention

[0019] The focal length SAn also includes the formula: Among them, θ n It is the angle between the central array lens unit A and the nth array lens unit extending outward from the central array lens unit A about the focusing point S.

[0020] In one embodiment of the present invention, the central axis of the central array lens unit B of the second array lens is collinear with the Y axis, and the focal length BS of the central array lens unit B is obtained.

[0050] The following will describe the various embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that in the various embodiments of the present disclosure, many technical details are provided in order to enable the reader to better understand the present disclosure. However, even without these technical details and various changes and modifications based on the following embodiments, the technical solutions claimed in the present disclosure can be implemented.

[0051] In order to overcome the deficiencies in the background technology, the present invention provides a small-angle glare light source, which overcomes a series of shortcomings of the background technology such as short life, large divergence angle, high power consumption, low reliability, and short irradiation distance, and realizes long-distance irradiation of glare light sources.

[0052] To achieve the above purpose, a small-angle glare light source of the present invention uses multiple lamp beads integrated in series on a substrate. The lamp beads integrated on the substrate are firstly shaped by an array lens group and a positive lens to form a small-sized focal point behind the lens, which effectively improves the light intensity of the light-emitting point. The light at the focal point continues to propagate through the beam expander lens and then emerges at a small angle. The relationship between the various parameters in the expanded light source collimation system and the divergence angle (half angle) θ0 of the emergent light beam is: Wherein, d is the diameter of the light source, and f' is the focal length of the beam expander lens. It can be seen from the above formula that the smaller the focal point size, the larger the focal length of the beam expander lens, and the smaller the final divergence angle of the light source, which means that the energy is more concentrated, and thus the glare irradiation distance is farther. Through a small-angle glare light source of the present invention, the divergence angle of the light source can be compressed to below 2°, thereby achieving small-angle glare irradiation of the light source, compressing the divergence angle of the white light glare light source and increasing the glare irradiation distance, while greatly reducing the power consumption of the light source.

[0053] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A structural diagram of a small-angle glare light source provided in an embodiment of the present application. The present invention provides a small-angle glare light source, comprising a heat sink 1, a housing 2, and a light source optical system 3, wherein a plurality of heat sinks 1 are provided; the housing 2 is mounted at one end of the plurality of heat sinks 1; the light source optical system 3 is mounted at one end of the housing 2 away from the heat sink 1, and the light source optical system 3 is mounted inside the housing 2.

[0054] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A structural diagram of a light source optical system for a small-angle glare light source provided in an embodiment of the present application. The center of the substrate 31, the center of the array lens group 32, the center of the positive lens 33, and the center of the beam expander lens 34 are on an optical axis, and along the light source emission direction, the substrate 31 is sequentially arranged with the array lens group 32, the positive lens 33, and the beam expander lens 34.

[0055] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3 A structural diagram of a substrate for a small-angle glare light source provided in an embodiment of the present application. The light source optical system 3 includes a substrate 31, on which a plurality of lamp beads 312 are integrated, and the lamp beads 312 are used to emit light sources, and the array lens group 32 shapes the light source through two groups of array lenses with different parameters to cooperate with the positive lens 33.

[0056] Specifically, the array lens group 32 shapes the light emitted by the lamp beads through two groups of specially designed array lenses with different parameters, and is used in conjunction with the positive lens 33 to converge the light beam to a point where the energy is more concentrated, greatly reducing the size of the focal point and improving the luminous intensity of the focal point.

[0057] Specifically, 19 lamp beads 312 are integrated on the substrate 31 , and these lamp beads 312 are used in series, with a total power of 400 watts.

[0058] Specifically, the light emitted by the lamp beads 312 integrated on the substrate 31 is beam shaped by the array lens group 32 and the positive lens 33 to form a focusing point with a small size and high light intensity, which is 21 mm away from the positive lens and has a diameter of 9 mm. This is a key measure to achieve the compression of the divergence angle of the light source.

[0059] Specifically, the light at the focused point continues to propagate, and after passing through the beam expander lens with a focal length of 290 mm, it is emitted at a small angle of less than 2° divergence angle, which greatly compresses the divergence angle of the light source, thereby effectively increasing the glare illumination distance, making the glare illumination distance exceed 6 km.

[0060] Specifically, the weight of the light source optical system 3 is only 0.3 kg.

[0061] The plurality of lamp beads 312 are connected in series. The substrate 31 is also provided with positive and negative electrodes 313 of the plurality of lamp beads 312 connected in series.

[0062] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4A structural diagram of the two-dimensional optical path of an array lens group for a small-angle glare light source provided in an embodiment of the present application. The two groups of array lenses with different parameters include a first array lens and a second array lens, the first array lens is located in a first plane, namely the P plane, the second array lens is located in a second plane, namely the Q plane, the first plane is parallel to the second plane and is located on the X-axis, and the interval between the first array lens and the second array lens in the Y-axis direction is d. The first array lens includes a plurality of first array lens units, the second array lens includes a plurality of second array lens units, the spacing AAn of the first array lens units is greater than the spacing BBn of the second array lens units, and the light source converges at point S after passing through the array lens. Assuming that the central axis of the central array lens unit A of the first array lens is collinear with the Y-axis, the focal length (BS+d) of the central array lens unit A is obtained to be less than the focal length SAn of the nth array lens unit extending outward from the central array lens unit A, and the formula of the focal length SAn is:

[0063] Wherein, SAn is the focal length of the nth array lens unit extending outward from the central array lens unit A, AAn is the spacing value between the central array lens unit A and the nth array lens unit extending outward, (BS+d) is the focal length of the central array lens unit A, and d is the spacing between the first array lens and the second array lens in the Y-axis direction;

[0064] The focal length SAn also includes the formula: Among them, θ n It is the angle between the central array lens unit A and the nth array lens unit extending outward from the central array lens unit A about the focusing point S.

[0065] The central axis of the central array lens unit B of the second array lens is collinear with the Y axis, and the focal length BS of the central array lens unit B is obtained. The formula for the focal length SBn of the nth array lens unit is: BBn is the spacing between the central array lens unit B and the nth array lens unit extending outward, and BS is the focal length of the central array lens unit B passing through the Y axis;

[0066] The focal length SBn also includes the formula: in, It is the angle between the central array lens unit B and the nth array lens unit Bn extending outward from the central array lens unit B about the focusing point S.

[0067] Assume that the spacing between adjacent lamp beads is a, the spacing between adjacent first array lens units is b, and the spacing between adjacent second array lens units is c. Through the above specific design, and when a≥b≥c is satisfied, multiple lamp beads can be focused on a point with high energy density.

[0068] The small-angle glare light source of the present invention, the light of the focus point continues to propagate, and after passing through the beam expander lens with a focal length of 290mm, it is emitted at a small angle with a divergence angle of less than 2°, which greatly compresses the divergence angle of the light source, thereby effectively increasing the glare irradiation distance, making the glare irradiation distance exceed 6km. The small-angle glare light source of the present invention, the weight of the light source optical system (excluding the housing and the heat sink) is only 0.3kg.

[0069] In summary, the small-angle glare light source of the present invention includes a heat sink, a housing, and a light source optical system. The present invention has a long service life, a small angle, low power consumption, and a long irradiation distance. The small-angle glare light source of the present invention uses an array lens group in conjunction with a positive lens to perform beam shaping to reduce the size of the luminous point and increase the light intensity of the luminous point, thereby achieving a smaller divergence angle and a longer glare irradiation distance, and the weight of the light source is greatly reduced, and the power consumption is also greatly reduced.
